Standards in Content Technologies: Should you care?

Recently, there have been many discussions in the
blogosphere regarding standards (or rather lack thereof) in the ECM space.

Are standards useful? Or are they just a set of buzzwords used to get tick marks in RFPs and analyst reports? Should you prefer standards over proprietary features?

I'll be speaking on this topic at the excellent
cmf2007 conference to be held in Denmark in November. We will address these questions and more and look at some of the popular standards that are relevant if you are considering content technologies.

So drop me a line with your views and experiences with your favorite ECM products and standards they (should) support.
